If news is to be true then Oba Martins will be missing for a while due to the sad news his mother passed away in a fire back in Nigeria. We pass on our condolences and best wishes for what would undoubtedly be a sad time.

Aye, very sad news for Oba. I’m quite sure football will be far far from his mind right now (and quite rightly). For us it suddenly makes the front line look a bit vunerable for a fully fit start of the season with Viduka, Caroll out and Owen recovering from Mumps. The hokey cokey kid is still hanging on by his finger nails.

Yeha get the feeling that Ameobi is like a bad penny
He seems to get so many lucky opportunities to hang in there… Anyone else remember the Chronicle articles about 2 years ago… I’ll be the next Alan Shearer… I honestly would have drugs tested him in an instant.

Condolences to the Martins family, not easy for a young lad to lose his mom, especially since they were so close.
